The following information updates the policies discussed in the “Shareholder Information” section.

Conversion Feature. After a maximum of 10 years from the initial date of purchase, Class C shares convert automatically to Class A shares of the fund. Conversion to Class A shares will be made at NAV. At the time of conversion, a portion of the Class C shares bought through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains (Dividend Shares) will also convert to Class A shares. The portion of Dividend Shares that will convert is determined by the ratio of your converting Class C non-Dividend Shares to your total Class C non-Dividend Shares. The fund may convert shares sooner in certain circumstances. A shorter holding period may also apply depending on your intermediary. Please see “Sales Charge Waiver Policies Applied by Certain Intermediaries” in the “Appendix” section of this prospectus. The policy will be effective March 1, 2019, however, prior to this date, or such other date as may be determined by the Adviser, the fund will permit an intermediary to transition Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, regardless of holding period, if the intermediary is unable to administer this conversion policy. Such transitions to Class A shares will be made at NAV minus any applicable CDSC.
